 A Matter Of Perspective
By George Thurlow
Some folks see calamity At every twist and turn, According to their faith Receive the thing they spurn. Others see a blessing Waiting 'round the bend; With confident expectation They extend their hands. Some folks have the jitters Live in panic and in fear; Others have serenity And feel Christ's presence near. It's a matter of perspective In whom you place your trust... Be it in a conquering Savior Or a lying serpent in the dust. Some folks see a dead man, Pain, defeat and loss. As for me, I see the empty tomb And the vacant cross! Matthew 9:29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you. Job 3:25 For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me. |
